We had such an amazing day with Ben going to Phillips Island! We stopped at the sanctuary and fed kangaroos, saw the koalas, along with several other indigenous animals to Australia. After a great lunch, we went onto the Penguin Parade which was incredible. Ben organized everything for us and the entire day was perfect! Thank you, Ben!

Had an amazing day of sightseeing on a customized tour from Culture Quest Tours. We loved seeing a few lesser known places offering a personalized experience. Examples Cape Woolamai, Maru Koala & Fauna park and the premium tickets for the parade of penguins at Philips Island.

Our tour guide Kenny was knowledgeable and easy to talk with but also not overly chatty. He was excellent at spotting wild life and knew the areas visited. We also appreciated that he kept us on time without being too stringent. He was a great communicator, clear on the stops and answered our countless questions.

Very glad we rearranged our schedule to take the tour and highly recommend the experience.

A BIG thank you to Ben and especially Kenny for the 4 days tour! The entire experience was comfortable, relaxing, and hassle-free. They were always punctual (sometimes even early) and really flexible and accommodating to our requests. We managed to visit all the places we wanted, and we were thoroughly satisfied with the overall experience. We didn't have to worry about tickets to attractions as they took care of everything for us. Highly recommend their services!

We took Melbourne city tour with this agency. It was awesome experience. Guide Ben was so knowledgeable, enthusiastic and friendly in nature. He nicely explained about current scenario, culture and History of the Melbourne.

Too good, much recommended!!

Our private tour of Phillip Island with our driver Kenny was definitely a highlight of our trip to Australia. Kenny was extremely knowledgeable, fun and informative and he made sure that we didn't miss a thing. He even provided us with binoculars at the Penguin Parade to spot things we would have missed! Kenny's car was immaculately clean and stocked with water and snacks and he even took photos of my family so that we would have the best memories. Highly recommend!!

I would absolutely recommend Culture Quest tours to anyone traveling in Australia! My husband and I visited during our honeymoon and Ben was so accommodating and helpful with planning out our private tour. We had an incredible experience, unforgettable moments and memories that will last a lifetime! Our tour guide Kenny truly made our day special with knowledge and history about each stop. Thank you Culture Quest tours for an amazing day!

Truly amazing tour to Phillip Island, not just what we saw but also thank to Kenny, a superb guide. We would recommend it to anyone.

Kenny was our guide for the Phillip Island tour and we were all very impressed with his knowledge and professionalism. He picked us up at our hotel and took us to a few sites before we saw the penguins go back to their homes at sunset. We stopped at Koala Conservation Reserve where we saw native animals: kangaroos, koalas, wallabies, emus, etc. Since we were the only ones on the tour, we got to pick the restaurant we wanted to go to on Phillip Island from Kenny's suggestions. After dinner, we walked on the boardwalk at the Nobbies and saw a few wild wallabies in the grass. Then he drove us to Phillip Island Nature Park and waited for us while we got to see the penguins emerge from the ocean. Watching those little fairy penguins waddle back to their home was an amazing experience. We spent about an hour watching the penguins and then we saw Kenny in the lobby, ready to take us back to our hotel at midnight. We highly suggest the tour and would go on another tour with Culture Quest Tours. Ben was very receptive to our needs and communicated well with me throughout the whole process

I am so glad I went with Ben from Culture Quest Tours for my bonding trip with my 20yo son before he goes army. It was the BEST and most memorable part of the of tour, and the credit goes to Ben. Never a bored moment. Fantastic and seamless itinerary, without idling and waiting time. Started the day with Maru Koala park where we saw and fed wallabies, has close encounters with the animals while Ben shared facts about them. Next we went on board a 2hr cruise to catch the seals. Ben was with with us all the way, sharing his vast knowledge and interesting stories about countries he visited. We had Geography/History lessens how French island came about and much more. There were loads of seals spotted on the seal rock! Awesome and really felt exhilarated to be sharing this moment with my son! We were then whisked off to our scenic Cape Woolamai & Philip island HELICOPTER RIDE! Words cant descibed how we felt high up in the sky. Son said that was the best experience he ever had! Next Ben brought us to Isola Di Capri for dinner. Breathtaking views with a humorous waitress and food was so gooooood! I wish I could eat it again. Our second last destination was Nobbies to catch the sunset. Ben did something 'naughty' in order to capture this beautiful moment and to witness the beauty of the cliff scenery & costal views. (Pls ask him to share this 'naughty' story with you guys!) It was also at this place, Ben suggested to take a video of my son and I hugging together with the sunset in the background ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️. Our last destination is to go watch the penguins. With the recommendation from Ben, we upgraded to Penguin Plus tickets and saw those amazing penguins waddled right in front of us!!
The day ended beautifully and I am really grateful to Ben for providing this world class service to my son and I.
What an itinerary! What an experience!! Will definitely recommend Ben to my friends who wants to visit Melbourne!!! Thank you Culture Quest Tours, thank you Ben!

Ben came out to Healsville to pick us up for our personalised wine tour of the Yarra valley. He was so professional and friendly and had everything organised to a tee. We had an amazing day and were made to feel very special. Great wineries, not rushed and a great experience.
We would highly recommend using Ben and his team, for a truly personal experience. Thanks Ben

We are a tour operator from Bulgaria and have been working with Ben for a long time. He is one knowledgeable and friendly guide, who makes great Melbourne tours for our groups. We definitely recommend his services.

Excellent , very clean cars, guide well versed with history, polite and friendly, I recommend them with 100% surety , will make ur trip memorable

I went on a walking tour with Ben a few days ago and couldn't have asked for more. Ben was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable and did an excellent job showing us around Melbourne's highlights and hidden gems. We noticed many beautiful buildings and cute laneways while learning about Melbourne. I relished the coffee break in a lovely laneway where I could now find myself. We learned a lot and had a great time. Melbourne has captured my heart! I wholeheartedly endorse it!

A fantastic virtual tour of Uzbekistan today! I've now done the Virtual Tour of Uzbekistan led by Bahman - twice now, as well as the Virtual Tour of Persia previously. Bahman's use of his own commentary, Google Street View to view both outside and inside famous sites in Samarqand and Bukhara, as well as YouTube clips to introduce particular themes of the tour (Persian New Year, Uzbekistan's mountains, the marketplaces, etc) - is brilliant. In addition, as I had my 90-year-old grandmother with me for the second Uzbekistan tour, Bahman was flexible enough to accommodate the tour around her nursing home lunch times. Both of us had a great time at the virtual tour and I'd happily do it a third time!

Unique virtual tours of Iran. Worth your time! I found one of their tours randomly on Eventbrite and liked it so much that I booked the rest of their lineup. The tours are interactive and detailed. I have not found anything even close to them when it comes to information about Iran, its regions, local architecture, nature, and customs. I have been blown away by the many things the tour guide, an Iranian native, has been showing in these tours. I can’t wait for the next and highly recommend them.

“I recommend Culture Quest Tours as they are a very informative and interactive tour. You actually feel like you are there and it’s amazing. The host is very nice and explains everything thoroughly. I have done both Virtual tours of Persia and can’t decide a favourite as they were equally good. I’m looking forward to joining more tours. Keep up the good work Bahman ????"

I have participated in two virtual tours of Iran organised by Culture Quest Tours. Having spent three weeks in Iran in 2015, I was interested in re-visiting the country which I had found fascinating. The virtual tours did not disappoint but on the contrary re-ignited my appreciation of this wonderful culturally rich country. Bahman, the tour guide knows his country like the back of his hand and leads you through the land with a wealth of knowledge, answering questions throughout the journey.
if you have always wondered what Iran is like, I recommend you to join one of Bahman's amazing tours. You will undoubtedly be compelled to travel this wondrous land when the borders open.
